Modifying Units

[Agamemnon]

If I change the attack, defence, or ownership of a faction in EDU and DMB, it doesn't change in-game. What do I have to do? I never had this problem with RTW!

[Ishan]

are u launching the game via IO command placed in your .cfg file

[Agamemnon]

I am launching the game via a shortcut to medieval2.exe, if that is what you mean.

Are you modding the vanilla files or a mod folder?

Read the readme in the unpacker's folder

Vanilla files.
How do I make a batch file (I am new to M2 modding)?

[irishron]

The easiest way is open medieval2.preferences.txt in noetpad, add:

[io]
file_first = true

save it, and make it read-only.

For all the config file goodies, http://www.twcenter.net/forums/showthread.php?t=70942.

Yes follow the Sir Ron advice and make the necessary changes in the medieval2.preferences.cfg file.

[irishron]

Got me, Ishan.

[Ishan]

Got me, Ishan.

Nah it's the same thing Sir Ron like "Potato, Patato".

Thanks.
